In this world, there are many unknown areas for human beings. There are many places that are forbidden areas that humans should not step into.
Once in, waiting for their end, only death.
This is how the story unfolds...
It was an almost moonless night.
A villa near the outskirts of the city stood alone like this, looking dilapidated and dilapidated, not to mention lifeless.
"Yuezhen, do you really want to go in?"
In front of the rusted iron gate outside the villa, stood four figures. One of the short people shrank and asked a tall figure beside him: "I heard from people nearby that it has been abandoned since the owner passed away, and it seems that strange sounds can be heard from inside at night." … I really don’t want to go in…”
"Fool, what is there to be afraid of, there are four of us!"
The tall figure said with a smile, then took out a flashlight and turned off the switch.
These four people are all college students, and they are usually best friends who gather together, and they are all interested in some anecdotes and anecdotes. The four were three men and one woman, the leader was named Duan Yuezhen, the shorter boy was named Gu Jin, and behind them were a man and a woman named Luo Guangming and Zhou Feng.
"This lock is really old..." Duan Yuezhen took a closer look at the rusty lock, and said to Luo Guangming behind him: "Guangming, can you open it? We are all looking at you."
"Well, let me give it a try." Luo Guangming took out a wire and began to put it into the keyhole. His uncle was a locksmith, so he had learned a little bit. Seeing him trying to open the lock, Zhou Feng asked a little uneasy: "Is this okay? Even if this is an abandoned house now, we didn't go in like this..."
"Don't be such an idiot, Xiaofeng," Luo Guangming opened the lock by the light of the flashlight, and said, "Didn't everyone agree to come here to explore tonight as the location for this year's test of courage? Those places in previous years were not interesting. Nowadays, cremation is widely used, there are no cemeteries at all, and there are more and more fakes in haunted houses and the like, and even a hundred pictures of ghosts can’t find a real one. Why don’t you just come here to have a look. The master used to be a painter who could see ghosts, although I don’t know if it’s true or not, but it’s much newer than those places before.”
Having said that, there is only a "click", and the lock has been opened, which is smoother than expected.
Pushing open the iron gate, Duan Yuezhen took a look at the villa. It seems to be in the style of a German villa, the trees on both sides of the courtyard have withered, and the house itself is very old. When I walked to the door, I found that there were cobwebs everywhere, and there was a lot of dust.
"Okay... let's go in now."
The door didn't lock and opened with a push. There is a long corridor at the entrance, the floor has cracks, and it makes noises from time to time when walking up, it seems that it can be broken through with a little force. The walls are also cracked in many places, the wallpaper has turned yellow, and the lime is constantly oozing. Although there are lights on the ceiling, there must be no electricity. The flashlights brought by the four of them are very useful here.
After walking through several curved corridors, I finally entered the main hall.
"Cough...cough..." Zhou Feng couldn't help coughing at this moment, it seemed that there was too much dust floating in the air here. In fact, she didn't really want to come here. The reason why she came here with the other three people was mainly because of Duan Yuezhen's relationship. Everyone knows that the two of them have something for each other. For example, because Duan Yue really likes red, Zhou Feng has been wearing a dark red coat.
Walking slowly up the lacquered stairs step by step, Duan Yuezhen is the person at the front, Luo Guangming and Gu Jin are following behind, and the last one is clutching his collar, walking around Zhou Feng looked around.
"This house... seems to be really gloomy," Gu Jin held on to the handrail of the stairs, and kept shining a flashlight on his side, as if he would feel insecure otherwise. On the other hand, Luo Guangming's reaction was relatively flat, and he just followed Duan Yuezhen silently.
He soon arrived at the corner of the stairs, and he was about to go on, at this moment, Gu Jin's flashlight illuminated the wall in front, and at this moment, he immediately yelled: "Wow! Ghost, Ghost!"
The three of them immediately pointed their flashlights in that direction, only to see an oil painting hanging on the wall. And in that oil painting, there is a female ghost with blood all over her face. It is really frightening to see in this environment.
"What... isn't it just a painting?" Duan Yuezhen even stepped forward to stroke it, and said, "The painting...is quite realistic."
The background of this painting is a study room. The body of the female ghost is next to the desk in the center of the study room. Her body is curled up and her waist is bent like a hunchback. Her eyes are all white and her pupils cannot be seen. It's all on the ground too.
"Gu Jin, it's really embarrassing for you to look like this." Luo Guangming helped Gu Jin up, and said in a contemptuous tone: "A painting scares you like this. If this ghost really came out, you wouldn't be so scared to pee." Pants?"
"Hey, hey, why are you talking so badly? Luo Guangming, do you think you are very brave? I can guarantee that if this female ghost is real, you will definitely run faster than a rabbit! Do you believe it?"
"Okay! Both of you help me to mature!" Zhou Feng intervened between the two, trying to mediate the atmosphere: "We didn't come here to quarrel, isn't it just a painting, let's go quickly."
"Cut! I don't care about you!" Luo Guangming raised his head and continued to follow Duan Yuezhen.
Walking to the second floor, it seems that there are more rooms than the one below. The four of them randomly chose a room and walked in. The floor was covered with paper and discarded paints. Some easels were lying alone in the corner, and a western-style stove was in the room. on the left side.
"Speaking of which, I saw a chimney on the roof just now." Duan Yuezhen went to the stove and looked around a few times, and said, "It looks like this is the studio where the easel used to be... There seems to be broken paper in the stove that hasn't been burned clean. Said Get up, how did the master here die?"
Luo Guangming thought for a while, and replied: "This... I don't know too well, but it shouldn't be murdered, but when I asked the neighbors nearby, they seemed to be reluctant to talk about it in detail... Yue Zhen, are you right? Does this house feel anything? Don't you have a strong sense of the paranormal?"
"Whether there is a breath of ghost... It seems not obvious. Anyway, let's continue to look. Gu Jin, why are you staying at the door, why don't you come in?"
"This room is not big. You can see it clearly from the door. Why come in?"
Duan Yuezhen picked up the paper on the ground again, and it was covered with a thick layer of dust. After it was photographed off, the painting on it was blurred and the colors were chaotic. Could it be an abstract painting? There was also a lot of paint scattered on the ground, which seemed to have been unsealed. Of course, the paint inside had dried up, and there was still a lot left. Could it be that this artist wasted so much and just threw it on the ground like this
"Well...the easel, paints, and paintings are all there, but two things are missing."
Luo Guangming asked curiously: "What? Yuezhen?"
"Palette and brushes, I don't know where to put them. I always feel that this place is too chaotic... I was wondering if this artist wanted to burn these paintings on the ground? But before they had time to burn them all, they already died."
Zhou Feng frowned when he heard this, and said, "Don't guess, Yuezhen."
"Who said I was guessing... The palette and pens were probably thrown away by the original owner, and all the paint was spilled on the ground, even the painters were thrown aside. Why do you say this painter destroyed his paintings What? By the way, who painted the painting at the corner of the stairs?"
"Probably this artist too," Luo Guangming said, "Isn't it said that this artist can see ghosts and draw them?"
Suddenly Gu Jin rushed into the room and shouted: "Hey, you, come and see..."
"What's the matter with you, you made a big fuss." Luo Guangming really couldn't stand this nervous guy, who would make such earth-shattering things at every turn, so he knew he wouldn't bring him along. Although everyone is working in the same internship unit, Gu Jin is not from the same department as them. He usually looks fearless, but now his true colors are completely exposed.
Duan Yuezhen walked up to Gu Jin and asked, "What happened?"
"In short, come with me, and you will know what's going on..."
The three of them were also suddenly curious, so they followed him through a corridor and came to the door of a room. Then he opened the door, turned on the switch of the flashlight and took a look inside. The other three were also a little surprised.
This is the study in the painting just now! Except that there is no female ghost, everything else is exactly the same. I have to admire the author of that painting, who recorded this study room like a photo... Thinking of this, everyone's feet trembled involuntarily. Could it be that there really was that female ghost here
"Cut... what, what's the matter..." Luo Guangming boldly said, "The female ghost must have been fabricated by the painter. In fact, there are no ghosts, don't you think?"
"I said... we'd better go back..." Zhou Feng is a girl after all, no matter there are ghosts or not, under this kind of atmosphere, it really makes people feel uncomfortable, so I hope to go back soon.
Yuezhen thought about it, and said: "Well, it's getting late, and I've seen the house once, so everyone should leave first..."
Luo Guangming originally wanted to make fun of Yuezhen, but when he looked at the study, he couldn't help feeling a little palpitating, so he said along the way: "Then, let's do it this way." As for Gu Jin, it is naturally his wish to leave here as soon as possible. up.
Then, the four of them quickened their pace and ran out of the house as if fleeing.
Just as he was walking to the gate, Duan Yuezhen accidentally saw the door plate hanging on the door with the owner's family name written on it, so he asked Luo Guangming: "Guangming...that painter...what's his name?"
"Hmm, name? Let me think about it... Ah, by the way, his name is Ning Luo."
At the same time, at Yi's house far away in the urban area, Run An woke up from her sleep. Then, involuntarily, an image of a person began to form in his mind, and some white shadows began to piece together to form a name.
"Gu, Gu Jin... this person is about to die..."
